Background
To date (Jun 17, 2022), Teaching Lab has administered the following to participants from your school or district during SY21-22:

Here, by visualizing ratings of strongly agree/agree in blue areas, and all other ratings in black areas we visualize feedback over time (If there is just one point of feedback this appears as a dot).
Finally, here are some highlights from the textual feedback of the end of session survey
Responses to “What could have been better about today’s session?”
Responses to “What went well in today’s session?”
Responses to “What additional feedback do you have about their facilitation skills?”

Recognizing Race and Culture Items
High Expectations Items
Teachers also responded to six items about self-confidence in their ability to engage in culturally responsive and sustaining education (CRSE) practices on a scale from 0 (not at all confident) to 10 (extremely confident). Responses were averaged across items. Higher scores correspond to higher self confidence.

Section 7: Student Outcomes
Teachers administered a student survey to at least one of their groups. Using 5-point Likert-type scales, students responded to eight items related to their teachers’ engagement in CRSE practices, three items related to teacher-student relationships, five items about self-efficacy, six items about happiness and sense of belonging, and five items about being challenged. Responses were averaged across items. Higher scores correspond to more positive experiences.
